Mika And The Witch’s Mountain is the concept of Kiki’s Delivery Service turned into a video game, and honestly, it works well. I enjoyed flying around the town and getting to know more about the mountain. I liked getting to know the citizens and appreciated the icons of the characters given to you in case you couldn’t remember the names.

Hunt The Night has combines Legend of Zelda in its puzzles and exploration with Bloodborne in its difficulty and ambiance in a way that will attract fans of either series. Though it might turn off players who are not interested in a lot of difficult boss encounters.

Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX is the same game we all played as a kid, with a new coat of paint and it works for the most part. Though the game might prove to be too difficult for today’s gamers.

Rise & Shine is a fantastic adventure and a change of pace for the traditional 2D side-scroller. A great looking game that plays well and has a lot going for it. Great gameplay, interesting characters and a nice change of protagonist as well. Sadly, the game is a bit on the short side and can be beaten in 4-5 hours.  The ride is definitely worth the time spent, yet once you beat the game the first time, there's nothing to do afterward.

While the concept and artwork could have made for an interesting title, the game itself becomes more frustrating than fun. The technical issues do not help, either.
